How To Assign Your Club Proxy

To assign the club’s proxy, starting in July, the Club President or Secretary (not both) can follow the steps below:

  2. Scroll to the Annual Business Meeting section on My Home (directly below the My Education and Achievements section).
  3. Click on “Club Proxy & Voting Instructions.”
    1. If you are an officer in multiple clubs, select the club for which you want to assign the proxy.
  4. Click the “Start” button next to “Designate Proxyholder.”
  5. Select from the three options for designating a proxyholder: A member of the club, the 2025–2026 District Director, or another active Toastmaster.
  6. Follow the prompts to complete the process. To submit your proxyholder designation, enter your name into the signature box at the bottom of the page, click the checkbox, and press “Confirm proxyholder.”
  7. If your club wants to use the option to provide instructions to the proxyholder, click on “Go to Designate Voting Instructions.” Voting instructions can also be shared at a later time from “Club Proxy & Voting Instructions.”
